In this paper, we develop intuitionistic fuzzy data envelopment analysis (IFDEA) and dual IFDEA (DIFDEA) models based on $$\alpha $$α- and $$\beta $$β-cuts. We determine intuitionistic fuzzy (IF) efficiencies based on $$\alpha $$α- and $$\beta $$β-cuts. We develop an IF correlation coefficient (IFCC) between IF variables to validate the DIFDEA models. We propose an index ranking approach to rank the decision making units (DMUs). Also, we propose an approach to find the IF input–output targets which help to make inefficient DMUs as efficient DMUs in IF environment. Finally, an example and a health sector application are presented to illustrate and compare the proposed methods.
